How can LECC contact you?

 

You don’t need to give us your name or contact details if you don’t want to. But it may be harder for us to assess or investigate any anonymous information.

It’s a good idea to give us a way to contact you.

6. Do you want to report information anonymously?If you want to remain anonymous, skip to question 17 — but we won’t be able to let you know what happens with your information or get any more information from you that may help us.
11. Your date of birth:Please enter date in the format dd/mm/yyyy. For example , enter 31 December 2000 as 31/12/2000.
17. Do you need an interpreter or translator?
18. Do you need a communication aid?
19. Are you, or have you ever been, a NSW Police Force or NSW Crime Commission employee?

 

Referring your information

The law says that, most of the time, the New South Wales Police Force or the NSW Crime Commission should manage complaints made against them. This makes the Police and the Crime Commission take responsibility for the actions of their officers.

We review the way in which Police or Crime Commission handle these complaints. We can also require the Police or Crime Commission to investigate complaints. We can also investigate a complaint ourself if that is appropriate.

You can find out more about our role here.

This means we refer most complaints to the Police or Crime Commission.

Do you agree that we can give the information you’ve given us to the NSW Police or the NSW Crime Commission?

If you don’t want us to refer your information (if you don’t agree) you can untick the box in question 20.

But this may mean that we can’t take any action on your information.

 

Other details

21. Are you making this report for someone else?
